The Australian soap celebrates its 30th anniversary on Wednesday, March 18, with the inaugural Erinsborough Festival kicking off to mark the occasion.
As the Erinsborough residents busy themselves with their festival duties, a distracted Harold (Ian Smith ) finds his thoughts are continually returning to his soul mate Madge.
Harold drives into the marquee
With Erinsborough history all around him, Harold has trouble staying in the here and now and he even starts to believe he can smell Madge's perfume and hear her voice.
Disturbed by this, he is uncharacteristically brusque with Susan, Karl and Lou, who all worry about his behaviour.
With Paul in full mayoral dress, a brass band playing and VIPs assembled, the festival is officially open. However, just as the event's quiz winner is announced, Harold experiences more intense visions while returning from an errand in his motorhome.
With the out-of-control van heading towards the stage, people are forced to leap for safety as Harold swings the wheel and spectacularly crashes into the marquee.
As chaos ensues, a dazed and confused Harold hears a familiar voice and as he looks across at the passenger seat, he sees Madge sitting beside him.
Madge appears in front of Harold
Later at the hospital, Harold wakes in his room to find Madge by his bedside.
Harold learns that she has come because he needs her, and he is so delighted to see her that he doesn't probe for further answers.The pair soon start to reconnect, but as a number of visitors interrupt Harold, Madge starts to slip further away.
Later, a distraught Harold is convinced that Madge is gone for good, but is relieved when she appears in his room again.
Madge is quick to reassure him that she is here for as long as he needs her, and they settle in for a good catch up.

However, when she eventually gets him playing and orders him to sing with her, Kyle struggles with a raspy voice and a sore throat.
Although Kyle lies to Phoebe that he has to go to work, he instead goes to visit Nate at the hospital where he addresses his concern.

Nate tells Kyle that he thinks he has developed a granuloma on his vocal chords, which is a possible result from the emergency incubation after the bus crash.

Although both Kyle and Ricky worry about the risks involved, the pair manage to head out of the Bay unseen and they soon arrive in the town where Sam lives.

However, once they have got hold of Sam, he tells them that he won't change his statement and although it becomes clear that Sam definitely killed Dean, he has no intention of confessing.
